', Hey, hope you not missing me too much ~ I know I've been ridiculously absent lately but I'm still with you babe in my mind'! .. And hey, interesting post this one'..well atleast for me, here's why and this may read out strange to you though I don't 'tend to think much still comes as a suprise to you ~ I am gonna assume there's probably a name or word for kids like me'..anyways, this word 'success' ~ yes, I'm familiar with it but we ain't family (get it?..familiar/family .. Italian families':D) .. anyways seriously though that word gives me this felling and thought as 'It's ment to be of importance' and should be more than familiar with it'..should be family, (hahaha':D .. 'kay, I''ll stop) but that probably makes sense'..you should be related with it than just knowing about it'..yes'? .. As familiar as I may be with it'..it doesn't seem to be much importance to me'..now I'm wondering is that something I should stress or never mind and of 'cause I respect it's meaning, just doesn't mean much to me'..and keeps giving me this feeling .. it should'!
